…sounding a bit like a passenger jet taxiing on the runway in the distance.
That could be because they use turbine generators for power when/if the local grid can’t support what they want. The major difference between the turbines used in aircraft and the ones for datacenters is the load. Giant fans for planes, generators for datacenters.
Please ignore the obvious onesidedness of the link below. Its there to show I’m not making this ip. It’s shitty that this is allowed and they aim to siphon off as much money as they can.

“green” gas turbines, what the fuck?
Mmm, nice clean diesel 🥴
There was also the article about the millionaire (billionaire?) that got their private plane to be taxed as green. IIRC
I think it’s a whole company. They got “private jets” listed as “green transportation.”
Words are fucking meaningless these days.
